We have completed Animecoin audit, resumed trading and allow withdrawals.

PLEASE NOTE: all addresses for ANI deposits were reset. Please obtain a new address for deposits.

We remind you that we blocked ANI coin trading previous week. The reason being was repetitive transaction processing for coins that were credited previously. The systems has automatically blocked withdrawals due to the discrepancy in wallet's balance and DB balance.

Should you have any questions, please contact our tech support.

Excellent , thanks !

Withdrawal of ANI is also working fast for me.

I am glad that Tranz has agreed to stick to the plan set out when the coin was first launched.

There was never any question that it would be changed. We just had a hypothetical discussion on the benefits of High PoS.

Please consider this carefully :


Is it now time to increase the % stake ?


HBN is in the 'High Stake' group, and has reasonable distribution, but needs a lot more trade volume.

Anyone who has been watching Hyperstake in the past 6 weeks will have noted the steadily increasing trade volume, along with price. That is distributing, and strengthening the network.

I believe that other PoS coins will increase their % as this benefit becomes clearer, and HBN should be one of the leaders in this.


I believe high PoS is going to be the 'next boom' and we are in the early stages, but only those coins with really high % will benefit. It will be like a % bidding war, but the upper limits will be determined by trial and error.

This makes sense because the 100's of dying coins out there are all needing network support,and fiat trade is not going to help them individually because of the dilution in the broad market. High PoS will be seen as a driver of activity generally, and therefore a lifeline for the fading (and a boom for the real leaders)

"Coin creation" isn't necessarily the appropriate term. I think of high PoS as continuous stock splitting. We have a coin network, say HBN, with 10,000 "shares/coins" representing it. If there are later 1,000,000 "shares/coins," but it still represents the same network, has anything really happened?

What is really happening is that liquidity is increasing since each old share of the network can be split into more shares, allowing for more fine tuning of the price.

What I see in HYP is the first high PoS coin with an *active community*. There are well over 100 people in the IRC coming up and executing plans, playing games, or just having fun. This has never been seen before. Honestly, it is the most "fun" crypto I've seen in a long while.

Doge has shown us that technology isn't the only factor that matters. Heck, BTC is the same since most 2.0 coins would argue it's suboptimal.

Good points.

It may be the case that those coins increasing their PoS right now will be able to capture the core market for this scheme. Others will copycat later but will miss the boat.
1124  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: HoboNickels - HBN - High Fast Stake - Version 1.5 Final Beta on: October 19, 2014, 03:54:52 PM
This is an interesting discussion. I just want to set expectations, that I don't plan to change the PoS % now or ever. It would be completely unfair to change the rules in that way, especially considering we are over 1 year old.  I can understand the reasoning why we would want to, but its not in the cards for me here.

Perhaps a bootstrap fork in the future could be done.   Shocked



Yes, understand that. PoS is all about wallet function and issues. You have great skill, experience and consistency.

I am not 100% sure which is the best way : Just wondering what exactly would be unfair about changing PoS % ?  Does it not still give a level playing field for every current holder, as well as for the new buyers ?

+1 Tranz
HBN is fine as it is, those who are looking for a quick buck (profits) should look elsewhere.

Definitely not about a quick buck, this.

I fully understand the argument relating to continuity. I have had similar discussions all of this year, in the threads of a dozen or so different coins (which I hold still).

95% of community members don't see the need for higher stake, that's fine.

Even after all that, I am still stubborn enough to believe that ultra-high stake could be the way forward for distribution. A real Ponzi scheme, if you like, but one which could be the only way smaller coins can gain the publicity and recognition of Bitcoin (after all WTH, Bitcoin only got big by speculation for profit : a ponzi sceme in its inflationary stage)

I hope I am wrong, and that the fundamentally good and stable coins will all be 'discovered' and make it to the big time without dodgy gimmicks.

I think we all can agree that the HyperStake experiment really develops in an amazing way. Despite of an enormous increase of its money supply there seems to be no end to its rise in price.

But these are only very recent events of a very young coin. With the number of HYP-coins out there doubling every 6 weeks, it can easily go down as fast as it goes up. That's why it's so interesting right now. Just wait and see. And decide whether you feel most comfortable at HBN, CAP, TEK or HYP-levels of POS and if you like, invest or mine accordingly.



Agreed.

It's a democratic 'vote with your money'.

The result is indicated by a rise in value (but the value is not the end result).

The trend is , so far, with HYP, and has continued for a number of weeks.

When a coin has really high PoS, the activity in the community can focus around staking and acquisition. More coins are held within the wallets, and do not come to exchanges. Therefore prices are maintained by less exchange volume. But the real benefit then is having a big active network.

Hyper price after The Peak will fall...My opinion.

Of course, yes, and other high PoS coins will benefit as the speculative money flows elsewhere. The coins which position themselves now will be in a good position....but this is not so much about price, it's about network support. I can forsee a possible upsurge in adoption of the coins with highest % stake.


More sake % = more coins to dump. You saying its not so much about price but when ppl see the falling prices they dumping coins and moving their money somewhere else...

HBN has 100% PoS already : it has the principle correct, just not the degree. Most communities consider 25% far too much and make the argument about inflation/dumping, but IMO that is a complete fallacy.

I didn't read the whole thread, but in case FIMK (pure PoS) has not been mentioned yet: http://fimk.fi/en/info.html

PS: the basic development philosophy of FIMK may be quite different from the other ones mentioned, as the main development interest and effort is in the communal aspect and every day use - gradual distribution of third of the coins to Finnish citizens as "basic income" over five years, the same time as extra stake rewards are being paid, in gradually lowering curve.

FIMK does not belong here because it's PoS reward is not high.

whales to be eternally selling, so that they can somehow "own it all".

If you could do it, wouldn't you?  Cheesy

I wouldn't.  If I owned all the coin, how much would it be worth? :p

Agreed. Seems a bit short sighted, like shooting yourself in the face a little

If you owned and hoarded all but a small fraction of all coins in existence, then that small fraction would run the network just fine, just with a higher value per bitcoin than if your hoarded coins were released into the wild.


If you owned and hoarded all but a small fraction it would be easier to pump. I see that part

If you lost the private keys to your hoard so that they were unrecoverable for all practical purposes, the network would function just fine without them, even if your hoard consisted of 99.9% of all bitcoins.
 

...but then there would be no buyers, because the fools always believe a 99% 'premine' (scam loss) is 'overhanging' the market. No distribution, no market.

You could never prove to any prospective buyer that you had 'really' lost the keys.

It's good that dev will release the code, so supercoin goes back to the open source based coin. What worries me is that lacking of a qualified dev will not help supercoin in a lead position. Other hype coins can easily copy the code and sell their "stories". Only with a strong dev who is capable of taking over can keep the leading edge of the supercoin. I don't see any now. If none, then what's the point to release the code to other coins?? better keep the code secret.

I guess that is why the dev did so in the first place. Maybe the dev should not release the code until a new, preferably full-time developer/team takes over.
1134  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][SUPERCOIN] Unique Most Advanced Anonymous Trustless Multisig Technology on: October 12, 2014, 11:19:35 AM
Supercoin has the potential to be the fastest growing coin on the market. At 500 satos now ( Oct 12) within a few months it could be 5,000 satos... It is better than other anon coins like darkcoin.. just needs the right direction... go buy some super guys...

Could you show me where you got 500 satoshi at?

So how the coin is doing? Slowly diying or already dead? =)

For me this coin is neither dying nor is it dead!

AnimeCoin is just progressing slowly forward until it unfoldes its unique form.



No volume is needed : better to develop users without speculation on the price. Animecoin is a currency : if it can be used to buy services and items (not to buy and sell other currencies), that will be a greater strength than most other coins.

To answer some of your questions regarding future updates, news and announcements:

We understand that there is still a bit of time to cover untill our geo software, mobile applications and platform are released. As shown on our roadmap, the coming weeks will be spend on setting up a good PR strategy and campaign. Part of this stategy involves showing the cryptoworld (you) what we have been working on. This means more articles, demo's, video's, screenshots and information as we work towards our closed BETA testing phase.

While most of time is spend on development and testing, our company understand very well that PR and transparancy are two very important factors. Because of this we will always remain active on these forums, the checkcoin community forum and social media. In addition, we've also assigned someone to keep our website's blog up to date.

TL:DR

Stay up to date by following Checkcoin on the pages mentioned below:

Thanks for the update.

It is always wise to proceed steadily. Technicals should come before promotion, but preparation for promotion is always good.

To all people who like supercoin dev or hate us: we did our job for the supercoin, we provided the best technology and the the unique p2p trustless system for anonymous transfer. As we have repeatedly said, the success of a coin, depends on the community, not on the devs. The devs provided the best they can for this coin. Rest is the community who will define the direction of the coin.

I will publish the source code of supercoin p2p trustless system for anonymous transfer by the end of this month. Of course the source code will be copied by many copycatters, who form the most "devs" in the alt coin domain. But at least the source code will help those who are capable of continuing developing and enhancing the code. All details are published in the whitepaper, there is nothing hidden.

Myself and supercointeam are too busy at our own work to continue developing coins. It's been a wonderful few months with the community here. And in the future if I find more time, I'll do some more serious work on the coin code. It is fun and a great experience for me.


OK, that's fine, thanks.  The sensible and skilled members of the community will come together when the source code is available, and can take the project forward.

seem no more people like to continue this.

Yes, still alive. It can stay quiet and come to life at any time.

Sorry for the lack up update recently. Worked on the new NVC faster stake for a while, but even after starting from scratch and trying on CAPs I wasn't successful.  So I scratched it for now and moved on to make the code more compatible by switching to int64_t.  Got that working and decided to go a few steps further and remove all the PRI64d stuff.

Well was on the last few updates, one of them called for a global replace. I used the IDE find and replace, instead of sed. And it severely messed up the code. I had failed to commit the changes up to that point, and my last backup was a 4 days ago. So lost a fair amount of work. Oh well, live and learn, although I have already learned this one a few times....



Well, some of the best advances often come after setbacks.

I am not a coder, but I know this stuff does not progress in a straight line  Smiley

thanks for all the compliments. i appreciate all of the support. but i must admit, i messed up. as most of u can see right now we are stuck on block 249,999. this is because the POS is supposed to change on block 250,000.
i told it that before 250,000 to use 25% and after 250,000 to use my new formula. i never told it what to do on 250,000.... i forgot and = sign in the code, which means there needs to be another wallet update. im really sorry about this. i will upload the fix in a second, im really embarrassed i messed that up.....


so im sorry to do this to yu all again, but please update your wallets to the 2.0 fix (on the first post)

OK, thanks. No problems, there will always need to be updates for all sorts of reasons: it is a work in progress.
